Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

In upper elementary grades, student engagement, responsibility, and recognition are key to academic and social-emotional growth. Paper and Post-its are fundamental tools for brainstorming, quick formative assessments, and differentiated instruction. Markers help bring student work and anchor charts to life, making learning visible and interactive.

Without these basic but impactful materials, both classroom instruction and school-wide leadership programs risk losing the small, daily reinforcements that build strong habits and positive school culture.

Incentive stickers and raffle tickets are effective classroom management tools that support positive behavior, effort, and student leadership—particularly for 5th graders preparing for the transition to middle school. Additionally, the 5th-grade safety patrol program requires motivation and recognition systems to encourage student commitment and responsibility.
